gTi RE AT SALE OF SHORTHORN CATTLE. 
tOT The subscriber will offer for sale, without reserve, at public 
auction, on Thursday, the 29th day of August next, at 1 o clock, 
P. M., on the farm of J. F. Sheafe, Esq., at New Hamburg, Duch- 
ess Co., New York, about 35 head of Shorthorn cattle, including 
cows, heifers, and calves. 
This herd was mostly bred by Mr. Sheafe, and I do not hesitate 
to say, that I think it one of the very best in the United States; 
and I have seen and particularly examined nearly all of them. 
Great attention was paid in the commencement of this herd, to 
the milking properties of the animals forming it ; and this, togeth- 
er with fine points and good growth and constitution, have been 
steadily kept in view in its breeding. There is but one cow in 
the herd which gives less than 20 quarts per day, in the best of 
the milking season, while one has given over 29 quarts per day 
and made 15 lbs. 3 oz. of butter per week, and two others have 
given respectively, 31 and 36 quarts per day. Their color is of 
the most fashionable and desirable kind — red, red-and-white and 
a rich strawberry roan — only one white cow in the lot. They are 
of good size and fine style, and all in calf to the superb imported 
bull Exeter, which will also be offered for sale at the same time. 
Pedigree of Exeter. — Exeter is of the Princess tribe of Short- 
horns—was calved in June 1848, and bred by Mr. John Stephen- 
son, of Wolviston, Durham, England. He was got by Napier, 
(6,238,) — out of Jessamine, by Commodore (3,452) — Flora, by 
Belvedere, (1,706) — Jessey, by Belvedere. (1,706,) — Cherry by Wa- 
terloo, (2,816,) &.c. See English Herd Book, Vol. V., for full pedi- 
gree 
Exeter was selected for Mr. Sheafe, by a first-rate judge of 
shorthorn stock, and was considered one of the very best bulls in 
England. Quite a high price was paid for him ; and it is be- 
lieved that his superior, if even his equal, has never before been 
imported into this country. He carries an enormous brisket for 
his age, and his style, handling, and quality are of the finest kind. 
His color is mostly a beautiful yellow-red, which is a bright-red 
with a fine golden or saffron undertinge, arising from a rich yel- 
low skin. He is the only bull of this peculiarly desirable red, 
ever imported into America. Calves got by him, out of this 
herd of cows, will fetch a high price the moment they are drop- 
ped. 
Mr. Stephenson, the breeder of Exeter, now stands at the head 
of his class in England, and his stock is of the highest repute. It 
is entirely of the Princess tribe, and traces its pedigrees without 
any alloy or Galloway blood, back to pure shorthorns, for up- 
wards of two hundred years ; a matter of no small consideration 
to those who wish a superior fresh cross. 
Catatogues of the above stock, with pedigrees in full, are now 
ready for distribution. 
Southdown Sheep. — A choice flock of this superior breed of 
mutton sheep will be sold on the same day as above. 
Suffolk Swine. — One boar and several breeding sows and pigs, 
of this fine breed of swine. 
Working Oxen. — A handsome pair of red working oxen.
